Iphone > Fairphone

Windows > Linux

Google > Qwant

Gmail > Proton + My own domain

Youtube (music) > Digital audio player (it's just a modern name for a good old mp3)

Gilette > Mühle DE shaver + Proraso ( That was because I worked for P&G who own Gilette and never use their products out of spite)

Netflix > nothing (I'm okay with that... for now)

Pornhub > Xvideos 🤣
